MAXINE WILLIAMS​
Painter​


A new work on the cow. 60 x 80cms box canvas. The ear-tag is actually painted in gold with a 'tongue-cheek' version of Girl with an earring.


​
My works have been exhibited, sold and commissioned for over 35 years.
I enjoy trying and investigating new ideas and experimenting in mediums, subjects and styles I paint characters, animal, human, mechanical and any subject that inspires me and landscapes, still life, marine....
Depth of colour, the power of light and shadow and reflected light shapes and detail are the life in my painting.
​
Inspiration comes from a multitude of sources for me to paint and play with ideas . Also, when someone asks me to explore their ideas for a painting, I enjoy the challenge and working with clients on commissions to create their own inspiration for a painting.
​​​ ​
Most of my work is in acrylics and sometimes oils and pen and ink.
I have recently discovered the joys of egg-tempera and gold leaf.
​
Although my work is mainly representational, figurative, occasionally I enjoy the freedom of working on abstract ideas which have had a very pleasingly positive response.
